Tribo-corrosive behavior of additive manufactured parts for orthopaedic applications.
Article in Journal of orthopaedics. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Additive manufacturing (AM) being an integral component of the production offers a wide variety of applications in the production of different components. The medical industry after the introduction of Additive Manufacturing has resulted in several advancements. The production of intricate patient-specific implants is one of such advancements which greatly assist a surgeon during a surgery. Orthopedic implants apart from possessing good mechanical strength are also expected to exhibit good tribological and corrosion behavior. As a result, the development of various orthopaedic implants and tools has become simple with the use of additive manufacturing. Objectives and Rationale: In the current paper an effort has been made to discuss actual scientific knowledge on the tribo-corrosive behavior of additive manufactured parts for orthopedic applications. Different studies dealing with the mechanisms of lubrication and friction in synovial joints have also been considered. A special focus has also been laid down to study the corrosive effect of implants on the human body. A section dedicated to texturing of orthopedic implants has also been provided. The paper further elaborates the different research challenges and issues related to the use of additive manufacturing for the production of optimized orthopedic implants. Conclusion: The study revealed that additive manufacturing has greatly aided in the manufacture of different orthopaedic implants with enhanced properties. However, a detailed study of the effect of processes like friction, wear, lubrication and corrosion in these implants needs to be done. The performance of these implants in the presence of various synovial fluids also needs to be addressed. However, the lack of more biocompatible materials, scalability and cost issues hinder the widespread use of AM in the different orthopaedic applications.
